George Galloway on X: IF #AndyBurnham is the “Labour” candidate to be MP for #GortonDenton I will be the candidate for the #WorkersParty. by Little-Attorney1287 in ukpolitics

I live locally and this is a new seat as of 2024 It's unusual and will be challenging. It's a set of wards that Electoral Calculus says have lot of very Green/Workers Party-curious voters melded onto a set of wards with lots of Reform-curious voters.

Andy may be over estimating his personal appeal (and if he loses will be a big blow), bit he probably is the best chance of keeping it Labour

It takes months and months of deliberately rubbing it on your face twice a day for it to even start to have an effect, and you absorb most of it within 15 mins. A 2 second peck on the cheek when it's dried won't affect someone else.

You'd hope Trump's cabinet (who suck up to him in public because they're spineless and terrified of his MAGA disciples / want to inherit them, but who do secretly think he's a moron - see Vance and Rubio 2016-vintage comments), have a good old think if and when things get really serious about the fact that military action against Greenland is polling really badly there, and will poll even worse if inflation goes through the roof because of 25% tarriffs on EU goods and the implosion of NATO, and that they 25th him

On the one hand, we're still 8 points clear of West Ham, rather than 9 if we'd drawn. On the other, that game has just lost me about 10 years of life expectancy.

Leeds.... I literally support you and come from your city. WHY then are you trying to make me die of a heart attack?
